  • Instead of sending you to the Vaush Gulag I’m going to instead reccomend that you try audiobooks. There are many on youtube, but that is not the only place you can find audiobooks of Marxist theory. Let’s just say Marxists are real keen on making sure these texts are readily accessible. While a lot of theory is old, not all of it is, but you’ll be lost in newer theory if you don’t know the basics.

    I highly recommend “Black Shirts and Reds” by Parenti for newbies to Marxism. I also recommend “Socialism Scientific and Utopian” by Engels, “Reform and Revolution” by Luxembourg. All of these can easily be found as both pdf and audiobook, and are short, and easily digestible by lay people.









  • It seems pretty clear at this point that one of the principal lessons of the Russo-Ukrainian war is “Having nukes guarantees sovereignty”. It’s unfortunate because nukes are obviously pretty fucking bad, but even if they aren’t saying it, every nuke-less nation with a sketchy neighbor is trying to figure out a way to obtain strategic nuclear capabilities now, and anyone who was thinking about giving them up has stopped… and I can’t say I blame them.
